The ten golden rules of precis writing include identifying the central idea, avoiding the repetition of key sentences from the original text, ensuring brevity and clarity, showcasing the writer's understanding, using original language, refraining from direct speech, incorporating statistical details appropriately, and concluding objectively without personal opinions. The precis should aim to retain the essence of the original passage in a concise form, presenting all significant points logically and coherently while eliminating unnecessary details.

Total admission for each course:
Course 2 = 40 + 80 + 95 + 100 + 110 + 130 = 555,
Course 5 = 100 + 140 + 180 + 200 + 250 + 300 = 234,
Course 4 = 14 + 18 + 10 + 6 + 12 + 16 = 1170,
Course 3 = 80 + 120 + 120 + 110 + 150 + 130 = 710.

No, not exactly. All conjunctions are linking words, but not all linking words are conjunctions. Words like 'however' or 'therefore' are linking adverbs, not true conjunctions.

Coordinating conjunctions join equal parts (e.g., two independent clauses) while Subordinating conjunctions connect a dependent clause to an independent one.
